Lot Description

1894 Barber Half Dollar. MS-66 (PCGS). Wisps of pale champagne-apricot iridescence are noted on this bright, beautiful, nearly brilliant premium Gem. A full strike and intensely lustrous surfaces will enhance the appeal of this expertly preserved coin for the quality conscious type or date collector. Despite its status as one of the more readily obtainable 1890s Barber half dollar issues in Mint State, the 1894 is scarce at this level of preservation. In the finest Mint State grades, as here, this issue is an undeniable condition rarity that is seldom offered. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. PCGS Population: 7; 5 finer (MS-67+ finest). PCGS# 6468. NGC ID: 24LN. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
